well root gives you access to everything meaning the OS itself, so being careless can result in making your n900 run slow or stop programs working correctly, most things a flash would cure, but if you brick it, thats it you need a new phone. its highly advised not to mess around in root unless you know what your doing

Re: PSX4All Maemo Edition
 

Ok thanks for that link took a read of it. but is there another way i can access the home dirctory without gaining root access?

Re: PSX4All Maemo Edition
 

BTW Guys i got access to Driver 2 demo and Resident Evil 2 demo and they both run at 40fps altho driver is hell slow and saying its at 40fps.. So from all my errors before not getting games going i think its just those certain games i have just dont work at the moment. So were getting there

You shouldn't need to be root to access your home directory (/home/user/).

Re: PSX4All Maemo Edition
 

i think programs like MC and Emelfm2 will let you view root but unless you boot it up with root access you cant change, delete, or move anything, you get "Permission Denied", and as far as im aware standard file manager or PC Suite only gives home/user/MyDocs access, the keybindings for psx4all are in home/user/. Im pretty sure all you would need root access for is to copy bios and mem card files there.

Re: PSX4All Maemo Edition
 

So is there any resolution or suggestion about the "left" button bringing up the Emulator's menu?

I've seen several people post this problem, and I myself just had it strike the moment I started using a SixAxis controller to control PSX4ALL.

I never had the left arrow key open the Emualtor menu when I was only using the keyboard, but now that I'm on the SixAxis, in game use of the left D-pad arrow opens the menu.

Last night, to play Resident Evil 2 I had to go all "Zoolander" on it and just turn right 360 degrees in order to direct myself to the left....

(Derek Zoolander is not an "ambi-turner")

Re: PSX4All Maemo Edition
 

I have done the "rm .psx4all" command to remap eleven times and also uninstalled and reinstalled twice, but still happens. Anytime I map to the left arrow key, it also acts like pause or start, though another key is mapped as the start key.

Arrow key worked fine and I did not have this issue until I tried my first remap with the "rm .psx4all" command.

@Lucas777, I have no key conflicts, but the left arrow key still seems to want to be both the left direction (as mapped) and pause/start key (as not mapped). Weird thing is this fine app did not do this the very first time I installed it and mapped the keys.

No, you don't need root access to copy things to your own home folder. Except then if the files being copied have read permissions for root only but you shouldn't need to copy that kind of files to your home folder (or someone has really messed up with the permissions of the files).

Re: PSX4All Maemo Edition
 

you can? always thought it was restricted to MyDocs, but sweet saves me having to gain root just mess with files in home.

and about the left arrow thing, same prob here, used to be P till i removed .psx4all and nows its left arrow, but im sure a few pages back it was mentioned this was going to be fixed in the next update or so, but if its any help i binded arrows to W A S D and buttons to H U M K and Q, E for triggers enter for start period for select, until its resolved, only problem i got now is if i hit Q A at the same time by it turns off FPS and lowers cycle multiplier :confused:
